About Me

Brook (River) JessupSinger /Guitarist /Song Writer.Banging away on his grandparents old piano as soon as he was big enough to reach the keys and make as much music/noise as possible (much to the amusement, then ultimate annoyance of family and friends, it was relentless).Painfully obvious they had a pint sized music tragic and natural born smart-arse on their hands, it was inevitable he would one day become involved in the entertainment industry one-way or another.Being bitten at a very early age by Head "rock" vampires, the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin like a moth to the flame; guitar became his weapon of choice.He has written many original songs a handful were showcased on Sydney’s Triple M and Coast rock FM. Like fine cheap wine River is still rolling and sounding better than ever.Once Rock and Roll sinks it's teeth into you. You don't "just" get over it!
